VIDEOSubscribe to Ultimate Classic Rock on Buffalo Springfield existed slightly over two years, but in that short time managed to release three albums, two of which are genuine classics.

Your college degree can really pay off — just become president of your college.

Jose Berrios hasn't had many losses to bounce back from this season, but when he's needed to, the right-hander has responded in big ways. The Twins' top prospect struck out nine over six scoreless innings, allowing four hits and a pair of walks, as Triple-A Rochester edged Norfolk, 3-2, on Sunday afternoon at Frontier Field.

Once one of the prolific scorers in the NHL, reaching the 45-goal mark during the dead puck era before the second lockout, Marian Hossa believes he still has the scorer’s touch — at least to produce more than the 13 goals he scored last season. Two years removed from a 30-goal, 60-point season, he ended last season with 33 points in 64 games. Injuries also interrupted his campaign. He’s 37 years old — with five years remaining on a front-loaded 12-year contract — and age-related decline is one ..>> view originalUS Coast Guard focuses on paddlecraft safety
